MLB 2023: Colorado Rockies Ticket Deals, Promotions, & Themed Days

By Kyrie Collins, Macaroni KID Highlands Ranch-Parker-Castle Rock-Lone Tree Publisher April 27, 2023

There is something magical about a baseball game that must be experienced in person! With new rules that are intended to increase the action while reducing the length of a nine-inning game, the upcoming baseball season is the perfect time to catch a Rockies game at Coors Field!

Coors Field is an outdoor stadium, so dress accordingly and try to get seats on the third-base side if you're going to an evening game so the sunset doesn't blind you. Look for the ring of purple seats on the highest deck, which marks the spot that is exactly 5,280 feet above sea level.

The Rockies mascot Dinger is a dinosaur because triceratops fossil remains were discovered on the property during the construction of Coors Field. When he isn't entertaining fans on the field, you may find him hanging around the small playground behind Section 147. A concession stand with child-size items is also near this playground.

New Rule Changes for 2023

  1. PITCH CLOCK: Hitters and pitchers are now up against the clock.
    • Pitchers will have 15 seconds to throw a pitch with the bases empty and 20 seconds if there is a runner on base. Additionally, pitchers will also be limited to two disengagements, or pick-off attempts, per plate appearance with a runner on base. The disengagements reset the clock. If the pitcher takes too long, they'll be charged with an automatic ball.
    • Hitters will need to be in the batter's box with eight seconds on the pitch clock. If a hitter takes too long to get set, it's an automatic strike.
  2. THE SHIFT: At the time a pitch is thrown, there must be at least four players on the infield, with two on each side of second base. A player who starts an inning at first or second base has to remain on that side of the field for the whole inning but can switch to short or third base the next inning. If there's an injury mid-inning, then the infield can be reset.
  3. BIGGER BASES: The size of bases, except for Home Base, has increased from 15 inches to 18 inches. This should reduce injuries while also encouraging more stolen bases.
